3. Sorry about that. Yeah, the Mothership is crappy to the West Coast.
Let us know if Keith does a second live edition for you, eh?

15. That, unfortunately, really sucks.
I guess there's a good side for MSNBC, eh?

Would a hug help you feel better? :hug:

5. Loved the opening.
Keith appeared in black and white and demanded NBC pony up for color!

Then they showed the old peacock they used to run before "This program is brought to you in living color by NBC"! :rofl:

It's so weird to see Keith in front of the windows when it's still light out.

9. "We can't afford color?"
It sure does. I was wondering if it was raining, but I think it's just getting dark.

If it weren't for Japanese game shows, how could Countdown fill Oddball some nights?

11. Love the little promo they're putting on it with smiling Keith.
He's such a breath of fresh air after the local news. They are such idiots. They just made it sound like the Dems are squabbling like children while Strong, Powerful John McCain breezes on. And showed his campaign ads, with no comment.

67. WHAT?
I was looking for him on MSNBC at 7 P.M. Eastern time, and all I got was prison stories all night!!! He was on NBC??? Oh my God, I really wanted to see this show. I was waiting with baited breath all day!:cry: Did they say if would be re-broadcast?

32. I believe the reference to "Botany" was a shout-out.
As for Keith, he's going to be in trouble with the women again. How dare he call a woman who is a prostitute at a gentlemen's club a "whore"? :rofl:

drop these off to decorate the tables:

36. You know things are bad in Iraq when...
... someone in each church mentions it during prayer requests. People are angry, upset, and afraid.

68. I'm glad someone else noticed that!
My god! she looked awful! Yes, the lighting was terrible, but I also think her makeup was extremely harsh.

I keep hoping she will find a stylist who 'gets' her and her cute, funky style. Someone who will give her a little polish, but keep her uniqueness and individuality intact.

41. Whoever thought of doing this on Sunday is brilliant.
Get the good reporters like Rachel, Richard, etc... on, and showcase how the show really is informational and in-depth.

Maybe there's a possible Sunday night offer on the table? (until football resumes, of course)

45. Get a No. 2 pencil
It's time for the Commander-in-Chief Test.

1) Lambeau Field
2) Macaca
3) Physical Challenge
4) Have you ever hosted a failed show on this network?
5) Are there tapes of these?

If the answer to 4 or 5 is Yes, you're immediately disqualified.

That's as far as I got before I couldn't keep up. :)

49. Dick "Three-Way Calling" Morris!!!!
Keith slams the Prostitute Toe-Sucker!!!! :rofl:

And even defends what Hillary said into the bargain!!!!

I wonder if any of Hillary's supporters to whom Keith is now dead were watching!!!!

Probably not. They'd never DREAM Keith would actually call someone on misquoting Hillary out of his own personal sense of fair play!

69. I thought maybe he'd spent hours yesterday herding people at a convention.
There was a guy in an Obama t-shirt calling out letters of the alphabet to sort people into lines at my senate district convention (I kid you not, they were expecting 1500-2000 people, and they had only one person for each letter of the alphabet) who was starting to lose his voice by the end of it. Luckily, he didn't go completely hoarse as he gave a speech later in the day -- turns out Mr. T-shirt is a judge. :-)
